  • Nice! Thank you. I made both builds at the pts and they look fun to play with, esp the DPS one. It's fine taking a cheap attack for a support build, that is not the focus anyway. The support one feels like a complete healing machine. A couple of things I noticed with the new powers. The new form seem cumbersome to use. And…
  • You made a good point. I'll forgo the last two pet builds. I would like to request two gedgeteering builds using the updated powers, one DPS and one healer please.
  • Thanks for the comment and clarification. Good to know that build may stay as is. I do have access to pts. will play around with the different options eventually and see how it goes. Here are a couple of new builds I am contemplating, from similar base build but different powers. If ever, the ST and AoE are energy…
  • Ok, I'll stick with Exp blaster then and save PBR for another build. I like Avalanche over frost breath and snow storm. That's right, the hybrid is for solo stuff, will be in support in a group. Good point on proc'ing compassion, the sentinel spec was changed to active heals, right? Will changing conviction to medical…
  • Thanks Flow. I like your build. The 20% debuff is definitely better, I forgot about sentinel mastery. Could I take pulse beam rifle instead of experimental blaster? Will it be feasible for a pet build? I am focusing on pet builds at the moment, will be requesting a gedgeteering healer later.. Have another one below. This…
  • Hello. The latest powers pass made a lot to changes to several of my toons.I have a lot of Intelligence primary character who got a retcon, several of them uses MSA or pulse beam rifle which were removed from the build. What is the best default setting for Int spec? One good thing is Int can have more energy without the…
  • Both builds look good. Thanks, thanks, looking forward to give them both a spin.
  • Hi, I'd like to try out the new force powers. First is my attempt at a Kinetic Manipulation FC build, I don't have any build with KM so I'm trying it out. Second, could use some help with making a shield-mechanics build using IDF. This is the DPS build. PSS-Int SSS-Con SSS-End Forcebolts Kinetic Manipulation-R3 Impact…
  • I see, so Telepathy was designed that way. Thanks for all the good ideas. Have added Dragon kick with rush, used Scything blade w/ adv. thanks for suggesting this, I didn’t know it was an alternative. Also took mass destructions and WotW with the latter build and changed Str to Con. Am not sure what else to take so I too…
  • Yes, that was exactly what I meant. Thanks. Are there any other AoE Mentalist powers that could proc telepathic reverb? Or could I use something like Vengeance with redemption denied to proc telepathic reverb, say on the second use of the power? As for the electric HW build, I decided to use Stormbreaker as passive. Made…
  • Thank you for the edit and ideas. Could Mental Leech proc the EU? So many options to choose from. Will try them all, though I am leaning toward the Avalanche build. :)
  • :) How about these two builds? First is a flexible healer, I initially wanted to use telekinetic burst for AOE but its description showed it will not proc telepathic reverberation so I used mental Storm instead and added the debuff specs. For the second one, I am redesigning a pet build and will alternate between the ST…
  • Thank you Flow, your build looks much better and is more efficient.
  • There is a limit to creating free form or AT characters, last I know of, it was 120 character slots. Also you will need to buy regular character slots using the monthly zen that comes with lifetime sub to create more free form characters. I bought mine when there was lifetime sub sale some years back. If you are willing to…
  • I hear you, Simple to use, doesn't need to push a lot of button. Thanks again.
  • Thanks for the Fire build, I like it, will use that instead. I hear you, for the MA, am replacing Rising Knee with Dragon's wrath with rush and invisible weapons, that way, can alternate bet the 2 ST attack. Will also take slave mentality instead of R3 for TP. Yes, Chain Lightning is for refreshing superconductor, will…
  • TP - Ok, understood, I forgot about Ego Sprite, will take that in place of Celestial Conduit. Thanks for mentioning it. MA - I have taken Dragon Kick on a few MA build already, I am retconing out Hundred Hands on one of my character to replace it with Dragon Kick with rush, incidentally, and wanted to make another one that…
  • Thanks for the tip. I haven't been buying keys and opening lockboxes in a long time so don't have much drifter salvage, been putting my zen into character slots, costume sets and shared hideout inventory, etc. I've seen a lot of TP character using it and it does look very useful. Will look into getting one when I do get…
  • Thank you for explaining and clarifying. So for TP build, main attack would be Ego Blast, and the rest, Mental Storm w/ adv., Ego Sleep w/ adv., Mental Leech are used to build energy or toggle the form. This is the revised build, I included celestial conduit as a last optional power for hopefully better dps, but its taken…
  • Thanks for the feedback, as always. Have incorporated your ideas into the build. TK Range DPS TK Melee DPS Telepathy DPS For the Telepathy build, will be trying shadow manifestation, just have some question, which powers do I have will be used to trigger the form? If I use Mental Precision, which powers under Telepathy…
  • True, 30 seconds cooldown is a bit too long, considering BCR w/RR is 15 seconds. Perhaps I will try that again, it is just hard to spend 4 adv points for MD because I find most of my builds tight in adv points. Am thinking for some builds that uses NW or WotW, will get dodge gear and use BCR w/RR. Good point on Resurgence,…
  • Thanks for the feedback Flow, appreciate it. :) Archery Ego PSS - took concentrated shots, switched to guardicator. Archery Int PSS - Have an AO all most builds, mostly to help break out of holds. Ok, for tight builds, I can switch that out then. I'll probably take the breakfree adv on Resurgence for builds without an AO.…
  • Flow, could you also review the following builds? Archery Ego PSS - DPS build Archery Int PSS - Defense Penetration build Marksman AT - The AT with updated powers Inferno AT - I have no idea what I'm doing here. She is at level 32 with the old power system. Fire DPS - Freeform update from old power setup.
  • Thank you as always Flowcyto. I have incorporated your advices into the builds. MA SB - Replaced TS with Scything Blade, took a rank from BCR and placed it in Intensity. Took Finishing Blow instead of Setup. Took Focused Strike and Mass Destruction. MA SB - I did not realized Reaper's Embrace was modified to rupture Shred…
  • That's convenient. Thanks!
  • I see, thank you for the clarification and suggestion. That means it is redundant now to get two AOs or two ADs, but one of each is still fine. L&L is still ok then, others I'm thinking about are either Imbue or the one from ice set. I saw MD now needs to be ranked. What's a good threat wipe that doesn't need adv pts, if…
  • Oh, that is good advise, I had not thought of Hard Frost working with the arctic beast and air elemental.Thanks for pointing that out. No, I have another AoED/healer toon for that. This is one of three pet builds I'm making, a Medical Nanites one, listed above, this one, an an upcoming AoRP one.
  • Ok, swapped out Arcane summons for a R3 Ice Blast here.
  • This is an AoED Petmaster. How does he look? Arcanis Storm - Freeform (Any / Multiple) v3.43:35 Super Stats Level 6: Dexterity (Primary) Level 10: Endurance (Secondary) Level 15: Presence (Secondary) Talents Level 1: The Samurai (Dex: 10, Con: 10, Rec: 10, End: 8) Level 6: Finesse (Dex: 5, Pre: 5) Level 9: Accurate (Dex:…
  • Thanks for the clarification that passive aura does not boost Compassion anymore. Ok, will use Smoldering then. At the very least, she'll be tossing the grenade every once in a while.
  • Ah, I understand. Much prefer Conflagration over Firebreath. Will go pure healer since there's no spammable holds for Fire, made the switch to this build. Also, how good is Absorb Heat? I haven't tried it. Would it be better than Iniquity?Took Compassion over Smoldering to have the Sentinel Aura passively boost it.
  • I went back and read your post again. You explained it well. Afraid I missed the point, sorry about that. Was hard to find the two points for it, I checked your build again and also took it from EoTS. Added EN to the lunge. Here's the build. Thanks for pointing it out again and for posting your build.
  • What would a pure healer hearth build look like? I vaguely recall seeing a build like that before but I cant find the page.
  • The next toon is a new Hearth build, so she's a Fire support. How does she look? I didn't like using char for the debuff as its at the end of the maintain, but I can't think of another way. Nova - Freeform (Any / Multiple) v3.43:35 Super Stats Level 6: Presence (Primary) Level 10: Constitution (Secondary) Level 15:…
  • Thank you, Flow. Thanks as well, Holloweaver. I added Void Shift and Endorphine Rush in place of MD and Rebirth. https://aesica.net/co/herocreator.htm?v=35&n=Symphony&d=13720iGKPLQa063010B000B10ZB8009A03BI00BM0bBK0C9D03K503ON018O00EZ07JN00LC002so93T3B3V7010000000000&e=
  • Thanks for the feedback. I did away with deflection and took Rush and Tiger's Courage. Also took toxic nanites in place of rebirth. https://aesica.net/co/herocreator.htm?v=35&n=Symphony&d=13720iGKPLQa063010B000B10ZB8009A03BI00BM0bBK0CFE03K503ON018O04ER007N00EZ052ss53T3B3V7010000000000&e=
  • Ok, I understand. Thanks. I usually take 2 point in Rush for my glass cannon builds, but yeah, mass destruction sound good too. Thanks for pointing that out. Next one is a dual blades invulnerability tank. I'm experimenting and wondering what an invul tank with dodge stacked would look like though Avoidance would still be…
  • I'd like to make use of all the existing passives on my toons. Already have two that uses TC and none with Composure. So this is the one using Composure. Also had not realized Sharpshooter does not work with Gatling and Showdown, thanks for catching that and explaining it. I switched to Frag Grenade with adv, took Chilled…
  • Making a new toon. A composure munitions glass cannon. How does he look? All Star - Freeform (Any / Multiple) v3.43:35 Super Stats Level 6: Ego (Primary) Level 10: Dexterity (Secondary) Level 15: Recovery (Secondary) Talents Level 1: The Squall (Dex: 8, Ego: 10, Rec: 10, End: 10) Level 6: Shooter (Dex: 5, Ego: 5) Level 9:…
  • I hear you. Thanks for the tips. Will check out the other AoEs. The block enhancer sounds good, I just couldn't find room for it here, otherwise, I have one on most of my other toons.
  • Good point, I swapped out the mech spider for EBR, added one rank to Serum and switched Rec to Int to better match MSA. How about something like this then? Steam Victory - Freeform (Any / Multiple) v3.43:35 Super Stats Level 6: Presence (Primary) Level 10: Constitution (Secondary) Level 15: Intelligence (Secondary) Talents…
  • This is a gadget based healer/pet master. He can use pets when solo and be a healer with groups. How does he look? Steam Victory - Freeform (Any / Multiple) v3.43:35 Super Stats Level 6: Presence (Primary) Level 10: Constitution (Secondary) Level 15: Recovery (Secondary) Talents Level 1: The Chiller (Dex: 10, Con: 10, Rec:…
  • I haven't tried using this build for end game content so I'm not sure how she will perform there. For everything else, she seem to work fine. ok, I'll just train those powers last for easier swap option. thank you.
  • Yes, she is a 100% Dodge Tank. Her crit chance sits at 38%. I stacked Dex so energy is ok for the most part, the EB is for applying aversion and twist fate to make it easier to get higher Dodge. I swapped out Dragon Uppercut for EB Pandemonium with threat adv. following your recommendation.…
  • This toon is my dodge build. She used to have demolish and another power that refresh it but I found it too tedious for a tank to keep track of that in addition to tanking. She also did not have protector spec and MD. This is the build I'm planning to update her with. What do you think? I don't mind the double penalty from…
  • Thanks as always for your feedback Flow. I patterned this build after a Shadow Form build you made for me ages ago and added the healing parts. I like your sound suggestions and have added all of them to the build below. what do you think? Majestic Universe - Freeform (Any / Multiple) v3.43:35 Super Stats Level 6: Presence…
  • Here is my attempt at a build using the new Harbinger passive. A hybrid/support that can passively heal and deal damage. How does he look? Majestic Universe - Freeform (Any / Multiple) v3.43:35 Super Stats Level 6: Presence (Primary) Level 10: Recovery (Secondary) Level 15: Constitution (Secondary) Talents Level 1: The…
  • At first, I thought the shoulder launcher was redundant with 3 toggles going. After more experimenting, have decided to keep it. Will probably sub out the sonic devise for an AO. Thanks again for the build.
  • Thank you both Flow and Jaaz. I tried out both builds at the PTS. Both did pretty well against 5 man hard setting. Wasn't familiar with the build at first but then got use to how RC works. Yes, Flow, it does seem to work better than BCR. Good idea, I got rid of MD and will just stick with Resurgence. Dps was much higher…
  • She's looking pretty good at the battle station. Agree with you, she is versatile and efficient. Thanks! Here's another one that's a PA with Quarry. She used to have two AO and AD, but that's redundant now. I tried this build in the PH and she could now fire off 3 slots but has to used EB a few times after. Before she was…
